Michael Jackson Biopic: Jaafar Jackson Gets Emotional About 'Michael' Transformation

With Michael Jackson biopic, ‘Michael,’ set to Moonwalk into theaters in a mere matter of weeks, lead Jaafar Jackson has danced his way onto the promotional trail.

The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon was his latest stop, and he brought with him an exclusive glimpse of the Motown 25 moment that introduced the world to the King of Pop’s signature move.
